Evaluation of climatic data, post-treatment water yield and snowpack differences between closed and open stands of lodgepole pine on Tenderfoot Creek Experimental Forest

Abstract

Data collection on Tenderfoot Creek Experimental Forest was initiated in 1992 and has expanded to the present time. A preliminary report was prepared to include data collection through the 1995 season (Farnes et aI, 1995). Some data was updated in Farnes et al, 1999. Since then, data has been collected but has not been edited, summarized or tabulated in electronic form. This Joint Venture Agreement OVA) was initiated to summarize all climatic and water yield data collected since 1992 and make it available electronically. The standard 30- year base period was recently updated from 1961-1990 to 1971-2000. New averages and precipitation map were to be deVeloped.
